So I'm having an issue with hardware errors on one of my two asics. Both machines run equally most of the time, but last night and this morning the second device has stopped hashing suddenly and unexpectedly. When it stops hashing, the temperature monitor shows it skyrocketing (pass 100) and the fans at 3000. Hardware errors start climbing to the hundreds of thousands. Configuration wise, the machines are identical. Has anyone else experienced this?

A restart of the system gets it hashing again and as soon as it's restarted, the temp is reported back down at a more manageable 43-44. It goes right back to hashing like it should. I do not know what happens if I just restart cgminer and not the whole machine. If this fixes it, I might just set a cron job to do it for me every hour. I'll post a screenshot if it happens again.
